Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

I hope this letter finds you well and in good spirits. As we embark on a new school year at St. Rose of Lima Academy, I wanted to take a moment to extend a warm welcome to both our returning families and those joining our school community for the first time.

At SRLA, we are committed to providing your children with a nurturing and academically enriching environment rooted in the values of faith, compassion, and excellence. It is our privilege and responsibility to guide your children on their educational journey, fostering their growth not only as scholars but also as individuals of strong character and moral integrity.

As a Catholic grammar school, our mission is deeply rooted in the teachings of the Catholic faith. We strive to instill in our students the values of love, respect, kindness, and service to others. Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to providing a holistic education that addresses not only academic needs but also spiritual and emotional well-being.

Throughout the school year, we will continue to integrate faith into our curriculum, daily activities, and extracurricular programs. We will also celebrate various religious holidays and events, fostering a sense of community and spirituality among our students.

I encourage you to become active participants in your child's education by attending school events, parent-teacher conferences, and staying engaged in their academic progress. We believe that strong collaboration between home and school is essential for your child's success.

Please take note of the following important dates and information for the upcoming school year:

1.   First Day of School: 9/6/23 ( The first 3 days of school are 12:10 dismissals and K-8 wear gym clothes)

2.   Back-to-School Night: 9/27/23 at 6:30 pm

3.   Parent-Teacher Conferences: 11/30/and 12/1/23

4.   School Calendar: Click Here for School Calendar Link

In addition to our academic curriculum, we offer various extracurricular activities, sports, Christmas concert and our school production of The Lion King. We encourage all students to get involved in these opportunities for personal growth and development.

As we move forward into this school year, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for entrusting us with your children's education. We are excited about the possibilities and the positive impact we can make together. If you ever have questions, concerns, or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to us.

Let us embark on this journey together with faith, hope, and a commitment to nurturing the minds and hearts of our students.

May God bless you and your families abundantly.

 

Sincerely,

Tina Underwood, Ed.S.

Principal
